We live near the trailhead at DeMoney/Grimes Funeral Home and bike the trail regularly. If you’re coming from out of town, you can park at Krogers. From this point the trail drops into Morsches’ Park, behind the YMCA, along the Blue River just south of town, and then all the way out to the Columbia City Schools. Part of the new expansion takes you through neighborhoods, but it’s still a dedicated bike trail and not simply a sidewalk with trail markers. Total length is approximately 15 miles if you don’t include a return trip. At no pointed are you required to hike/bike on a roadway.
Ride Kokomo to Peru. Lots of shade areas. Relatively smooth.
There's a fair amount of road crossings here, but it's otherwise a very good trail.
It's a completely sunny trail, so break out the sunscreen/long sleeved shirts for this one.
The trail elevates you to the point where you will feel like you're on top of an actual levee.
You'll be seeing boat docks for the most part, so there isn't too much to see.
The pavement is pretty bumpy, rough, and narrow the entire time, so your bum might not thank you if you ride your bike on this one.
Nice and scenic, as it takes you through local parks, nature, and a hospital.
The trail is very narrow all throughout, so if you encounter a another bike rider, there's not a whole lot of room of maneuver in, so be careful.
It's also a bit rough until you get south of E Van Buren st, where it does get nice and smooth.
The pavement is a bit rough all throughout the trail, as roots are beginning to crack through so some brief sections are rough on the bum.
You'll get both sun & shade on this decent nature trail.
an enjoyable experience with river bluff trail just down the street.
Great little trail! would like to know when the section across cr 900 N are going to be open?
I drove 4 hours to bike this trail (15 miles out and back) the last day of May and thoroughly enjoyed everything about it - the curves, the great condition of the trail, the birdsong, the bridges, the view of the river, the other cyclists as well as walkers. The switchback hill was tough. The ride on the road wasn’t bad at all. I recommend this trail for anyone looking for a trail of this length.
